Very unfortunate. After using 3D Vision for many, many years. Playing immersive games without 3D Vision really doesn't give me the kick anymore. Not sure if I will eventually stop playing video games all together.

Luckily I still have a huge backlog of 3D Vision compatible games, I need to play first, before I have to worry about the fate of 3D Vision.

I initially registered to become a investor but now after lots of reading on the subject and gaining some knowledge, I will actually backtrack and not play along.

There is too much which can go wrong here, some tricks with hidden companies which act as the main investors and have priorities over the private investors and other stuff.

As it seems, the game might make lots of profit and still, no private investors could see any money. Eventhough I want this project to succeed, I will only help as crowdfunder, not anymore as an investor.

I will buy it as I had lots of fun with DNF because I didn't expect anything. Good shooter, better than most, lots of humor, cool levels and good shooting. Can't wait to play through it again, hopefully in 3D Vision this time...

Great update, especially for 3D Vision users. Now I can finally play through the game using the latest enhancements and all DLCs, which was unfortunately not possible with community 3D Vision patch (eventhough it was amazing).

Way to go Nixxes, amazing job and support you're delivering here. As a thank you, I bought the game now full price

I concur. I initially signed up with this investors program but after informing myself and thinking about the whole project, I reconsidered. Lots of people will loose money on this, I will not be part of it.

This is exactly the thinking which resulted in 3D Vision failing and 3D Vision is way cheaper to get than any VR helmet.

The cost for adding and troubleshooting stereoscopic support in any game is just not worth it for a handful of enthousiasts. Now with VR, not only do the developper have to get SS support working but code, debug and optimize the new control scheme for the game. This results in so much lost man power which could have been used to optimize the game for the general public/add features or game content/get rid of bugs which 99% of your potential buyers will benefit. Instead you lost time and money and something which less than 0.1% of your audience is able to use.

This will fail hard, no doubt. 3D Vision survived all those years because nvidia kept throwing money to the developers (and kept sending their own coders to the studios to help them adding support). But now, after stopping this tactic, none of the studios which offered 3D Vision support in the past (Batman games, Tombraider 2013, Just Cause 2), includes it anymore (Arkham Knight, Rise of the Tomb Raider, Just Cause 3).

There will be a initial enthusiasm and momentum for VR because it's certainly amazing and fun but the cost of those devices will kill it. Even for 400-500$ is way too much for average Joe and for this technology to become a success.

Update: Crystal Dynamics just released and patch to add SS support, so I stand corrected and that particular title. It still makes sense for them to add support as TR2015 is based on the TR2013 engine which included SS support, they didn't had to write one from scratch.

Desktop PCs with Windows 10 do NOT get encrypted by default when install the OS from scratch, the article is talking about Windows phones and tables... don't worry
